FRS 300th Anniversary Garden Party at the Museum of Old Newbury

FRS 300th Anniversary Garden Party at the Museum of Old Newbury

Join the parade, led by a New Orleans Style Second Line Jazz Band to the Museum of Old Newbury for a garden party celebrating the 300th anniversary of FRS! We're encouraging all to make and carry signs celebrating our 300 years working for peace and justice and join us for the .4 mile walk to the museum. The walk to the museum is .4 miles and parking is limited.

The garden party will include a light lunch, coffee, tea, soft drinks, and water. The party will be outside in the museum garden weather permitting. In case of rain, we'll be in the lower level of the museum and in the carriage house. Please join us for this relaxed opportunity to socialize and celebrate our history together. Listen to music, wander through the museum gardens, enjoy tasty treats, and visit the FRS steeplecock, while children enjoy games and activities.

Museum staff will be available to give tours of the historic museum's first floor, including the original FRS steeplecock. Friendly, knowledgeable tour guides share fascinating stories in the museum’s period rooms and galleries. You will walk through this Federal-period house, from its 1808 beginning as a ship captain's home to its ownership by multiple generations of the Cushing family. Please consider joining the Museum as a thank you for providing us with such a lovely space for our event: https://www.newburyhistory.org/membership. Be sure to note FRS in the "special instructions" field.

The event is limited to 200 guests. Please be sure to update your reservation if you're not able to attend.
